The Laurel Difference
State of the art technology!
At Laurel School of Arts & Technology we have equipped every classroom in Kindergarten through Sixth grade with an LCD projector, document camera and a SMART board. A SMART board is a whiteboard with a touch sensitive screen that allows a student or teacher to manipulate images and text with a touch of a finger. A document camera is able to project any image directly onto a screen. Document cameras connected to the SMART Board enable teachers to display realia, lessons, read alouds, textbooks, exemplars of student work, manipulatives, bugs, rocks... you name it! Kindergarten and first grade students are using iPods to help develop literacy skills by listening to their teachers read stories on iPods. Students are able to check out the ipods and take them home. |

Our teachers love this new technology added to their "toolbox." It increases student engagement, learning, and achievement. The teachers wonder how they ever taught without it!
